Oil on Linen

Just before Christmas 2014 I was delighted to be included in Here Today… at the Old Sorting Office, Oxford Street. That show bought together some really great artists that taught me something about being in a prestigious group show. To an extent I thought the installation artists, sculptors and large scale painters were producing more striking work than me.

So I decided then that I would have to make something very striking to satisfy my appetite. The new idea seems like the best and boldest place to start as its simplicity lends very well to such a scale.
